Animal Webaction visited the site 03 April 2019 and confirms the situation described below.

 

We went to Georgina's shelter on March 3rd, the remaining dog food will only last two weeks!

In her shelter in Romania, Georgina currently has 30 dogs

Alerted by Georgina that her food stock was running low, and that she encountered big difficulties to renew it, we visited her shelter right away.

The last few weeks have been extremely challenging, with many dogs rescued in critical conditions.

This situation exhausts Georgina and her few supporters, physically and mentally, but worst of all financially: no one can buy any more dog food!

We want to help her, by sending 1800 kg of kibble as soon as possible

100% transparency guaranteed

 

1. We went to the shelter on April 3rd: there were only 2 weeks of food left

###
During our visit, Georgina showed us the remaining food stock: a little less than 200kg, the equivalent of two weeks' food.

On April 2nd, Georgina told us that her food stock was running low: we went there the next day.

During our visit, we noticed that there were only a few bags left in storage, enough to feed Georgina's dogs for only 2 weeks.

 

2. Once the stock is over, the thirty dogs in the shelter will still need to eat!

###
Found on the street by Georgina, Ionela is currently unable to stand up: she suffers from generalized weakness, time is needed to see if her health can improve

 

 

 

###
Peticica was threatened and abused in a nomad camp: Georgina rescued her and took her to the shelter. She is still thin, some of her wounds were not yet scarred when we visited her.​​​​​​

 

 

###
Georgiana was found wandering, at an extremely advanced stage of gestation. Unable to leave her on the street in this state, Georgina brought her at her shelter

 

 

###
Negruta was found by the riverside with her three puppies. All are now housed in the shelter

 

 

###
Atena suffered from various burns on her stomach when she was brought to Georgina, probably as a result of abuse

 

 

Currently, the shelter hosts thirty dogs, a number that varies very often , depending on the departures but especially on the new arrivals at the shelter: "For every 2 adopted dogs, 7 new dogs arrive at the shelter" Georgina tells us

 

 

3. Since February, many difficult rescues have been made, taking a huge toll on Georgina's and her few supporters' finances

###
Brought to Georgina by other volunteers, Mura suffered from multiple ailments: anemia, advanced skin disease, prolapse, but also and especially a generalized infection that almost cost her her life. Mura is still on treatment today

 

Anton was in a very critical state when he crossed Georgina's road: on the street, he was unable to get up or carry his head because he was too weak. Many treatments were provided, and Georgina watched over him every night for several days, but Anton unfortunately could not be saved

 

Fed on a nomad camp for several months by Georgina, Traiana contracted babesiosis, a parasitic disease that is difficult to cure, in March. Neither the care nor the attention Georgina gave for several days cured her

 

Hoppi was Traiana's puppy, who died in March from a parasitic disease. Unfortunately, Hoppi had been infected with the same disease in utero, and also declared it after a few weeks. He couldn't be saved.

 

Rescued after being hit by a car, Tzumpki suffered from a severe leg fracture. After surgery, he is still in the recovery phase, and will have to undergo a new operation shortly to be able to walk normally

 

Within a few weeks, many dogs had to be rescued, often under extremely difficult conditions." The last few weeks have been really difficult, many urgent cases. We have never had so many critical cases in such a short time before," said Katrin, one of Georgina's and Lupy's main supporters.

 

 

4. Georgina receives little help, she can no longer afford to buy dog food

 

Georgina is a volunteer of association Lupy, which also has a small shelter. She's been receiving valuable help from the Mukitza association, as well as from a support group based in Germany for several years. 

Unfortunately, the total cost of the rescues in recent months is much higher than the help that these two organizations can provide, and Georgina herself has exhausted her financial resources! 

 

 

5. If the collection fails, dogs won't receive any food

We can swing into action, we have already booked a truck and pallets, but we have to pay it before April 9th.

If the collection fails, we will not be able to pay, the departure of the truck will be cancelled and none of the collected kibbles will be delivered...

If the collection fails, we will refund all donors

 

 

6. Feeding, vaccinations, sterilizations, medical care: Georgina is also very active for street dogs

Although she works full time, and takes care of the dogs in her shelter, Georgina works a lot for street dogs. Starting by feeding them, because many cannot get enough to eat without outside help

 

 

As a veterinary assistant, Georgina also takes care of vaccinating street dogs, in order to contain any epidemic that could quickly affect a large dog population

 

She also provides them with care when necessary, whether it is to heal wounds, disinfect, treat skin diseases....

 

One of the last bitches sterilized by Georgina. Although sterilization is expensive, Georgina makes it a priority because it is the only way to reduce the number of street dogs and their suffering

 

Georgina works full time, and takes care of the thirty dogs at her shelter alone. However, she considers it imperative to take time for those who cannot be accommodated because of lack of space.

Georgina regularly visits different sites where several street dogs have taken up residence, both to watch over them and to try to control the local dog population. Thanks to the care she provides, the sterilizations she organizes, and the vaccinations she carries out, she contributes to improving the well-being of these dogs, while containing their proliferation and epidemics.

Moreover, the food she brings them allows these dogs to eat their fill, which is very difficult for them without outside help.... But this is compromised by the stock of kibble that is coming to an end!

 

7. Against all odds, Georgina fights for Orastie's dogs

###

 

Since 2009, Georgina has been working for the Orastie dogs, entirely on a voluntary basis. She takes care of feeding and caring for the animals, cleaning their living space, but also carrying out rescues, and placing ads in town as soon as a dog is found, in the hope of finding its owner.


Veterinary assistant, she devotes all her free time to abandoned dogs, every day from 4pm, as well as on weekends. Her job gives her access to certain medical treatments necessary for dogs, which she administers to them herself. 


While the situation could discourage many, Georgina describes herself as "strong and determined": she considers herself to be doing everything in her power to help the Orastie dogs, and has learned to be content with it. After all these years, she remains confident that things will change gradually, and that animal abandonment will become rarer over time.

 

8. The plight of stray dogs in Romania

 

9. What will the collected dog food be used for?

If the collection succeeds, the 1800 kg collected will be used to feed the dogs at Georgina's shelter, ans well as street dogs she cares for.  

 

10. 100% transparency guaranteed

- Animal Webaction has been helping more than 750 animal welfare associations over the past 4 years, with more than 1,700 deliveries in 8 countries (see photos).

- We make sure to contact each partner association, inquire to ensure its reliability and always ask for supporting documents.

​- Our partner associations only receive physical products, which means we never send money. When you offer 10kg of food, we deliver 10kg of food to the association.

- We also deal with transportation ourselves, and make sure all the products collected are properly brought where the association needs them to be, so a quick delivery is guaranteed.

- We will notify you by email as soon as the product bought thanks to your donation has been delivered.

- We will ask the association to take pictures of the food received, and will send you these pictures.

- If you change your mind, we will refund your donation upon request, without charge or proof of any kind.

- If unfortunately the collection fails, we will not deliver anything, we will refund you the full amount of your donation.
